Recipe Introduction


"Phyllo is substituted for the pastry typically used to make turnovers. A savory combination of apples, raisins, and cinnamon fills these low-fat turnovers."



List of Ingredients




• 1 cup chopped, peeled apple or pear
• 2 tablespoons raisins or snipped apricots
• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• Dash ground nutmeg
• 3 sheets frozen phyllo dough (17x12-inch rectangles), thawed
• Nonstick cooking spray
• 1/4 cup sifted powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon fat-free milk




Recipe



1. For filling, in a small mixing bowl combine apple or pear, raisins or apricots, granulated sugar, flour, lemon juice, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Set aside. Unfold phyllo dough. Place one sheet of phyllo dough on a cutting board. Spray with nonstick spray. Repeat layering and spraying remaining phyllo, keeping phyllo covered with a damp cloth, and removing only one sheet at a time. Using a sharp knife, cut the stack lengthwise into 4 strips.

2. For each turnover, spoon about one-fourth of the filling about 1 inch from the end of each strip. Fold the end over the filling at a 45 angle. Continue folding to form a triangle that encloses the filling, using the entire strip. Repeat with remaining strips of phyllo and filling. Spray tops with nonstick cooking spray.

3. Spray a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray. Place triangles on the baking sheet. Bake in a 350 degree F oven about 15 minutes or until golden.

4. For glaze, in a small bowl combine powdered sugar and milk. Drizzle over warm turnovers. Serve warm or cool.

Makes 4 servings.
